25 | On 3/10/2023 Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Anita Tristan and Cynthia Brannon conducted an unannounced case management inspection. LPAs met with director, Sylvia Wingfield. During today's inspection, LPAs toured facility, reviewed infant's and staff files. The infant center has two infant classrooms, one is for the younger infants ages 0 to 12 months. The older infant classroom is for infants ages 13 months to 24 months.
Upon arriving at infant center, LPAs toured the younger infant room. LPAs and director observed staff #4 was siting on the ground with four infants. One infant was laying on the ground, propped on a boppy, with a blanket on top of infant. The blanket was propping a bottle. LPAs requested for staff #4 to pick up the infant and to feed the infant while holding her. The infant's top part of clothing was wet. Infant is 5 months old. When questioned, Director informed LPAs that she has provided training to staff that when feeding an infant, the infant is to be held while feeding. There should not be propped bottles when feeding an infant.
Per Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1, of the California Code of Regulations, the following deficiency is being cited: (see next page, 809 D) Licensee was provided a copy of their appeal rights.
Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with Director Sylvia Wingfiled.
